Small Business Plans and Preparations

When I resigned from my regular office employment I planned on doing freelance writing and start a business of my own, just a small food shop of meat products and some varieties. But when I started working at home and did several online advertisement works I realized that I can’t start a business right then because my time is full already. I’m afraid that I will not be able to make my business successful because I have a handful of works already and I’m fully occupied.

Starting up a business will require you so much time and effort and I can’t promise that I can spare my time then as online writing became my full time job. I know in my heart that time will come for me to balance my family, work and my dream of putting up my own business. Now I’m preparing some plans for it, allocated some space for my shop, saving money for my capital, inquiring about business license and will soon start a small business checking account so everything will be ready and in order when I finally decide to start my business. It’s best to plan early and ahead of time so I can be prepared for whatever hard work and circumstances that goes with having your own small business. As they say dreaming is free so I’d like to dream more!

A Day with My DSI Friends

Got a chance to spend my friday afternoon with my former colleagues and friends, my officemates in Design Science where I've worked for 10 years before I was transferred by my boss (the same owner) to his telecommunications business. Well I'm so happy to see my dearest friends whom I've worked for almost a decade and whom I've shared endless working nights, sometimes overnights for 3 days doing technical proposal for bidding projects. A day is not enough for us to catch up with the tales of our lives after we transferred to different companies. We're a group of more than 12 and some of us are now living in USA and Canada. Few are working abroad in Asian countries while most of us who were left here in our country have been employed in better jobs.

I'm just too tired now to upload our photos but will do it later.

Handling Your Corporate Events

In my previous employment we always think of some new things to add to our present list of services and products that we could offer to our clients. Company must always come up with new innovations or products that would make us retain our existing clients. Telecommunications is a very demanding line of business because we always have to be updated of the current trends, prices, forex rate, international call rates and every new product and services available to the clients. Every month technology is growing and before you know it there’s new in the market and if you’re not paying attention to latest technology updates you’ll be left out in the field. In view of this we instigate team building, managers’ meetings and product training to cope up with the growing demand of telecommunications industry.

I think it’s good if we had some major corporate events that would tackle several areas of advertising and marketing for the company’s products and services. If only there’s someone who was good enough to handle all that there wouldn’t be a problem. We all know that arranging meeting, conventions, conferences and product launches can be so tiring and exhausting because we want it to be a perfect occasion to remember. It would also help the company if marketing and product launches would be successful. In this kind of situation we could always hire people to do corporate event planning for us so it would be easier to handle events. Hiring a company like Dynamic Event Solutions brings you to the fore of experiencing an awesome event to remember because they provide excellent service and professional management all throughout the event.

Their event solution goes beyond the superb service, catering and staffing because they provide personal attention and dedication with a very affordable price. So if you ever need a company to handle your meetings, conventions, conferences, product launches, consumer events, team building and some other corporate events visit their site and see what they can offer to you.

Crystal Figurines for Gifts & Collections

I’m fond of collecting different figurines when I was still single and I collect ceramics, glass and some other types of figurines. It brings me contentment every time I bought a set or two and displays it in our cabinet. Until now I have some of my collections except for the ones which were accidentally broken. I love looking at them which also brings me to remember the old days when I would go to my favorite store where I get my figurines for affordable price which makes me return for more.

Now I have so many things in mind that I stopped some of my favorite collection hobbies but I was glued to online searching for my favorite things, of course I also want those items with discounts and this cheap crystal figurine I found online caught my attention because of the models they used for their crystals. They used cute characters which are perfect additions for my collections. I particularly liked the Swarovski Kris Bear Flowers design. It cost only $72.00 and it’s perfect also for gifts.

:TC - Messy : Natural Disaster

Thursday Challenge
for fun and learning

"MESSY" (Children, Natural Disasters, Work Areas, Kitchens, Animals, Hair,...)

This is a shot from our veranda on the big flood caused by typhoon Ondoy that badly hit our town. Our town was submerged up to around 5 feet depending on the location or areas. This picture was taken when the flood started to decrease its height after one day of giving us deadly flood. We're lucky to have a two-storey house and we let some affected neighbors who have bungalow or one storey house stay in our place.

One day after the flood stranded people started to come home and check their loved ones and homes including my sister and my husband. It was a saddening moment for those who lost the lives of loved ones and properties. It was MESSY all over the town after the flood subsided. It took days and weeks before the mess was cleared up With God's help we were able to move on and start anew.

Avaya Telephone Systems

I’ve worked for a small telecommunications company for several years and been dealing with carrier settlements, billing & collection until I resigned from the company. Since most of our transactions were via internet and via telephone we always look for quality but affordable electronic components to use in our head office needs.

Our prime service clients are the call center companies who are in need of affordable calls to US and other countries. We also cater to telecommunication needs of big corporate companies who were able to reach our usage quota.

As I can remember we used to buy phones from major dealers just to avail the discounts they’ve been giving wholesale clients like us. I know some companies also look for inexpensive components for their electronic needs to somehow cut their expenses on purchasing cost just like finding used Avaya merlin legend telephone systems which can be bought at very affordable prices and can also be upgraded to latest version. Avaya systems provide help to small and big corporations by way of reorganizing and making the telephone systems more efficient.

Tips on Having Beautiful Smile

Having white, healthy teeth will surely bring that bright smile on your face and will make you look younger than you really are. A smile will light up your face and will add some charms on you. I'm glad that I've managed to take good care of my daughters' teeth, read about some tips here to get that beautiful smile:

1) Good dental care begins with regular and right brushing
2) Use a small, soft bristled brush. It works better than the big ones because it gets at all sides of your teeth. Or use an electric tooth brush. These brushes are very effective when used properly and regularly.
3) After brushing you can help yourself to use a water sprayer to clean your teeth
4) Don't forget to floss. Floss gently and thoroughly.
5) Eat about an ounce of aged cheese BEFORE a meal. It will eliminate the acid in the plaque and help prevent tooth decay.
6) Last but not the least,, visit your dentist at least once a year

Clothing for Men

Hubby just had his birthday last week and I was really thinking of my gift for him. He’s not really asking specifically what he wants and if you do ask he’ll just answer that anything can do. But anything is far from my mind as I want to give him a gift that he really needs and will be used often. Of course I want him to remember me always when he’s using my gift. Well aside from seeing some men’s clothing online I did go to my favorite department store and look for some nice upper clothes that would fit him. You know when it comes to clothes hubby doesn’t want very loose shirt or pools because it makes him informal. He wants formal clothes when he’s attending fellowship service that’s why her sister’s package was a sure delight.

Actually I’ve given him a mobile phone on his birthday as his old one had a trouble with lcd but I really want some new men’s outer wear for him to wear when he’s going out somewhere. Weather is very unpredictable these days and it’s good to bring some jacket for protection from cold. I don’t want to him to be cold and sick these days as he has enough hard work in his job. Now for searching for clothes I want for my hubby and kids I was glad that anytime I can go to Shopwiki and do some online shopping.

For the whole family’s needs it’s easier now to choose and buy the things for them like computers, appliances, toys, sport coats and blazers, jewelries, automotive and many more. With this kind of shopping you can buy the things that you want in the convenience of your own home minimizing the pain on the soles on your feet when you search around stores. No need to fall in long lines to pay for your purchases, no need to walk around shops and stores to get your needed items. Most importantly Shopwiki has all the specific sites and stores that sell the clothes that I need. It makes shopping worthwhile and easier!
